zooqueenandHanzo Dev d3bff5e2dc proofs: drive Lean library to 0 errors, eliminate proof-by-assumption axioms
The lean/ proof library (88 files) had ~180 type-check errors across ~45 files
plus 31 proof-by-assumption axiom cheats. It now type-checks cleanly under
Lean 4.14.0 + Mathlib, with every theorem genuinely proven from definitions.

Errors fixed:
- Stale Mathlib imports: Data.Nat.Basic / Data.Int.Basic were removed this rev
  -> Data.Nat.Defs / Data.Int.Defs (57 files).
- Shared AI/Agent/Governance/Contract/DeFi/Ecology draft files: same proof-rot
  as the zoo-labs sibling library (now reconciled): omega missing in-scope
  bounds, dead tactics after simp, simp over-reduction, doc-comment placement,
  reserved-word binders, deriving Repr on Finset-bearing structs, noncomputable
  defs over opaque primitives.
- Consensus/Liveness: collapsed a 74-error cascade (undefined shared state model
  inlined from Safety.lean; the |>. pipe-projection vs comparison parse trap on
  14 lines rewritten to explicit dot projection).
- Crypto (BLS/FROST/Corona/Hybrid/threshold/FHE), Consensus, Protocol, Warp,
  Trust, GPU, Compute, Network, DeFi: brought structure invariants into scope
  for omega, Nat-division bounds via Nat.div_le_of_le_mul / Nat.div_mul_le_self,
  noncomputable over opaque crypto ops, deriving Inhabited for index access.

Integrity:
- Removed all 31 `theorem X := X_ax` cheats (axiom asserting the identical
  statement) and proved each from definitions; removed the UNSOUND
  content_addressed axiom (hash-injectivity over a struct with free fields).
- Quorum-intersection theorems (BFT/Quasar/Flare/Warp/BLS/GPU/Bridge): the draft
  hypothesis 3f<n is insufficient (n unbounded above makes them false); tightened
  to the optimal-resilience invariant n=3f+1 / 2t>n. Statement intent preserved.
- Net axiom change: -35 / +1 (the one addition, honesty_static, is a
  fixed-validator-set modeling assumption matching sibling files).
- Remaining axioms are trusted-base only: opaque crypto primitives (groups,
  pairings, hardness, hashes, FHE encrypt/decrypt, BLS soundness, forward
  secrecy, Fisher-Yates uniformity) and protocol modeling assumptions. No
  sorry/admit/native_decide. Verified all theorems trace to
  [propext, Classical.choice, Quot.sound] plus those primitives.

Verkle Tree Correctness
Verkle trees = Vector commitment + Merkle tree.
Smaller proofs than Merkle (O(log n) → O(1) per element).
Maps to:
- luxfi/crypto/verkle: Go implementation
- lux/node: state commitment
Properties:
- Binding: can't change a value without changing the root
- Proof size: O(depth) elements, each O(1) (vs Merkle O(log n))
- Batch proofs: multiple values in one proof
